'"Do you want my opinion?' asked tho
Senator. Ga being answered in the affirm

assrredly seat man clected under ouch
circumstances. Tho Constitution OF your
State conflicts with that of the United
States Constitution, which gives the Leg
islaturs power to elect at its first meeting
after the vacancy occurs. Juet such 3
case recently occurred IN California. Tie

The announcement of the death of Mrs. John Durrie at the advanced age of nearly ninety-two years has caused pang of sorrow and regret among her very many warm friends in this community. She died at 424 Temple street, the home of Mrs. George H. Durrie, with whom she had resided for the last few years. Until within a short time her general health had not been greatly im- paired and her na4ural vigor and ever cheer full spirit was matter of pleasant comment among her family and immediate friends. Those who enjoyed her intimate friendship and companionship during the past years of her life and had learned to admire and appre- ciate her sterling womanly character, her unassuming worth and her gentle sympathiz- ing nature will sadly miss that kindly coun- tenance and genial glow. of welcome which always greeted their social visits.
 Mrs Durrie was the widow of the late Dacon John Durrie of the North church, now well remembered by our older citizens and esteemed for his business integrity and Chris tian character. She had six children, four sons and two daughters, of whom three sons and one daughter survive. John, the eldest, is prominent artist of this city. George H., deceased many years since, was also an artist and attained celebrity for his landscape painting, particularly his winter ''New England farm scenery" Dr. William A. has for thirty years been a well known physician in Jersey City, but has now re- tired from practice and resides in Orange, N. J. Mrs. Jane E. Manney was a resident of East Haven for many years and died about two years since. Arthur G. has for many wears been associated with the Associated Press of New York city.

Simmons, has lived with her mother during the last part of her life and with affectionate flial trust has Administered to her daily comfort and well being with untirinR faithfulness until her 5eatR There are now surviving nine grand children and fifteen great.grandchildren.

oorm1TrEE ON CLAIMS

Many Petitioners Heard Who Want
 Compensation from the City for Sum-
 dry Injuries to Persons or Property
 SIPS Recommended for Three Petf-
 tfOners
 The committee on claims met last night and held protracted session. Mrs. Bridget Benson petitioned for compensation for inju- ries received for falling into an excavation Nov. 6, 1887, on Monroe street. between Pine and Lombard streets. There was no danger signal displayed. Mrs. Benson, who is hard worked woman, lost seven weeks time in consequence of the injuries she received. One arm aud leg were badly hurt. In ex- ecutive session the committee decided to re- commend that Mrs. Benson receive $50 from the city treasury.
 The committee also voted to recommend that Edward Johnson, an aged man, be given $50 as compensation for falling on an icy sidewalk last January in front of No. 823 State street. MT. Johnson, who was peddlar by oecupa- tiou previous to his fall, was 50 badly in iured that he lay in the hospital for many weeks and was unftted for any kind ot work. He is in very strengthened circum- stances. Drs. G.. M. Bush and Charles Park teSt1hed as 10 ms 1nJuI1SSs OACoE DooSoA testified as to his finding him grooming on Q doorstep and placing him in the patrol wagon to be taken to the hospital. MT. Frank D. Hill testified to the poor condition the walk was in Attorney s. H. Wagner spoke of MT. Johnson as man who ought to get something from the city, because if he did not he would necessarily become burden on the town. The committee thought so too and voted as above.
 Officer James Reynolds petitioned for dam ages to his building No. 360 Congress avenue by the falling of tee. The officer said it cost him $25 for joiner's bill. Chairman Hugh Daley said the city was liable in this case and the committee voted to recommend that the officers petition be granted.
 J. Burton Hine petitioned for abatement of assessments. It was tabled. The peti- tions of H. Ellen Kennedy and Margaret Patten were laid over.
 Mrs. Hiram Barnes petitioned for an abate- ment of assessment on the house owned by the late John 0. Talmadge of Fair Haven. It was tabled.

FIRE LAST NIGHT.

An Incipient Blaze in Allen's LithO.
 graphing Establishment on Meadow
 Street-Supposed to Have Been the
 Result of Carelessness-An Accident
 Narrowly Averted.
 It was shortly after 10 o'clock last night when the fire alarm was sounded from box IT, corner of Columbus avenue and Lafay- cite street.
 The fire was in Henry c. Aliens itho- graphing establishment at 3s Meadow street. MT. Allen has the middle portion of the one- story wooden building adjoining what was formerly the Wooster House. Officer Picker ing, who was stationed at the Union depot, saw smoke issuing forth from both the front and rear of the place and he sounded the alarm. Engines and 8 and and truck ? were on hand. The fire had burned but lit tie and was easily extinguished, but considera- ble damage was done by water. MT. Allen said that the fire was probably started from carelessness. He and his wife and young son were at the office shortly before the fire broke out His son lighted 8 cigarette and threw the match on the floor.
 They had not been home long before the fire alarm was struck. He started out to see where the fire was. He did not for an in- stant think his place was the objective point of all. The contents of the building were valued at $5, 400. The insurance is about s, ,OOO. MT. Allen could not estimate the damage last night. but is probably not much less than S1 ,000.
 Steamer No. and Hook and Ladder No. i of Artizan street came within an inch of col iding last night at the corner of State and Court streets, in front of Johnson Brothers. The ladder came up Court and the steamer was coming up State. In pulling up and turning the steamer horses to let the hooks go by one of the steamers horses fell. There was great excitement for a moment among the crowd of spectators. The driver of steamer No. exhibited the greatest coolness and good judgment. The falling of the horse delayed the steamer about five minutes. The horse was able to go right along. The drivers escape from serious injury was very narrow one.
